(And when We said unto angels: Prostrate yourselves before Adam, they fell prostrate…)_2;34.

Here the Almighty Allah illustrates that prostrating to Adam (PBUH) is not worshiping him but it is a form of honoring and veneration to the status of Adam (PBUH).

(And he place his parents on the dais and they fell down before him prostrate…)_12;100.

The family of Yusuf (PBUH) prostrate before him is not for the sake of worshiping but again it is a way to honor him. This is exactly the Shi’a do when they bow or prostrate before the shrine of the Imams (PBUT); they do so only out of honor, respect and veneration to the Imams (PBUT) and not because they are gods or deities – Glorious Allah forbid!

Anwar: Great! This is a defeat to those slanderers who say we worship the Imams (PBUT).

Hasan: Yes, it is actually obvious for discerning people.

Anwar: I have a question here, as long as we are speaking about worshiping and worshippers.

Hasan: Yes, please!
